  The Largest Electronic Image Bank 
See and interact with images as you study...		  
The Challenger Lifetime Subscription seamlessly integrates over 15,000 high-resolution images throughout the various Med-Challenger courses. This high-resolution imagery has always been one of the hallmarks of Challenger programs. Every image is assigned to the appropriate standard of care topic, and most can be enlarged for detailed examination and observation. These high-resolution images cover a variety of areas including x-rays, contrast studies, and CT scans, along with dermatological interpretations and much more.
   Powerful Search Engine  
Whether you are looking for a specific topic, collection of images, or specific phrase, Challenger's Internet-based search engine allows you to locate references in seconds. Best of all, you can launch right into the clinical section you wish to see. With this searchable, point-of-care reference, not only will you have immediate access to the latest developments in your specialty, you will also save time by identifying the specific information you need when you need it.
 
   Continuous Source of CME
A search for efficiency...		  
Physicians are often victims of "mandate overload." On average, mandates require 50 credit hours or more per year of Continuing Medical Education, boards recertification, state licensure, and mandated study area requirements-such as pain management, domestic violence, and elder care . All of these imperatives contribute to an expanding demand on the physician's time.

Simultaneously, physician incomes are declining and their workload is increasing. The genius of Dan Jones, MD, our Founder, was to identify and then capitalize on a study method that actually works - to improve knowledge retention, to meet CME requirements, and to prepare the physician for boards exams and subsequent recertification faster and more effectively than any other tool on the market. That's why we've been the number one electronic education firm for 15 years.

With the rising costs of CME and boards review courses, as well as ever-increasing mandates from various accrediting bodies, the Challenger Lifetime Subscription becomes more economical every day. Just think—for less than $1.20 per credit, you can earn up to 3,800 AMA Category 1 CME credits! Where can you find a better offer? With the Challenger Lifetime Subscription, you no longer have to fight long lines at airports, stay away from home in uncomfortable accommodations, and scramble to find ways to earn CME at the end of the year. In terms of time saved alone, how can you afford not to own and use this product? And if you average the cost of the Challenger Lifetime Subscription over a 10-year career, it comes down to less than $1.20 per day. Isn't your education and peace of mind worth the price of a cup of coffee?
  State-of-the-Art, Standard of Care 
Challenging Q&A courses, designed by physicians for physicians...		  
There has been an ever-increasing emphasis on standard of care and current guidelines in the medical field. Not only are you expected to remain up-to-date in the changes to your specialty, it is becoming more and more imperative that you be familiar with the latest developments in all areas of medicine. With increased emphasis on evidence-based medicine, some specialties are even requiring annual testing to make sure you are always aware of the current practices and latest treatments available.

Challenger is aware of the ongoing changes in your yearly testing requirements. In response, we continue to develop products such as Challenger LLSA and Challenger MC-FP as a solution to your annual testing needs. We are also continually updating our courses to ensure that they provide the most up-to-date standard of care and current guidelines in your specialty.
  Practice, Review, Assess, and Score
Three steps to success on any examination...		  
Challenger review programs are elegantly designed to promote the highest level of retention possible. Questions are written by clinical experts to emulate clinical examination standards and to enhance knowledge of current best practices. Whether you are preparing for an examination or reaffirming your knowledge, our review and testing structure will help. Our review method is so effective we even offer a Boards-Pass Guarantee!
